			<description><![CDATA[<p>In my limited experience, waiting until the bed is at room temperature usually helps a lot.&nbsp; </p><p>I&#039;ve used a plastic scrapper and small ball-peen hammer (I&#039;m starting to not do this after reading all the posts about broken glass).&nbsp; I placed the scrapper at the base of a part then tapped it lightly to pop the part off.</p><p>I had to print an array of small disks (.3 inches by .07 inches tall), and the ball peen hammer approach caused them to fly all over the place.</p><p>So the next time I printed that array, I tried something else - a modification to my bed cleaning practice:</p><p>I use Elmer&#039;s Washable School Glue stick - it goes on purple and turns clear when dry, which helps a bit to tell me if I have complete coverage.&nbsp; At the end of the print, after the bed is back to room temperature, if I have any trouble getting the parts to pop off just using my fingers, I wet a paper towel and drape it over the parts and the bed, and push it into the corners where the parts meet the bed. I let it sit for 2 min, then remove the parts.</p><p>I then place another wet paper towel over the print bed.&nbsp; I have a 2.0 Duo, and a small sheet form a Brawny &#039;select a size&#039; roll of paper towels is equal to the width of my print bed.&nbsp; I let that sit for 2 min, and then wipe up the glue.&nbsp; Anything that doesn&#039;t immediately come off, I rotate the ball of wet paper towel to bring a fresh face into contact with the bed and continue to wipe.&nbsp; The cool thing is that the glue turns purple again when it gets wet, so that helps a lot in figuring out where to clean up.</p><p>Sometimes I&#039;ll use a wadded up dry paper towel at the end to get the glass to shine.</p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<p>I just use a glue stick and I wait for the bed to cool before removing. I&#039;ve never had any issue removing a print. Usually once it&#039;s cool it pops itself loose.</p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<p>In my experience the best way is to use a scraper and get under the model and pry up. I use one that is very similar the same as the one in the pic below (Razor Blade Scraper With 5 Plastic Blades And 5 Regular Metal Blades) from ebay. orks great.</p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<p>I also did some research before ordering my printer, and ordered the below product based on forum member recommendations.</p><p>amazon.com/gp/product/B00MHXCQPK/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&amp;psc=1</p><p>I found it difficult (impossible) to get it applied without bubbles under the surface, but besides that I am 100% satisfied with adhesion and removal.&nbsp; Unless something happens in the future, I have no intention of ever using anything else.</p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<p>In my experience it is better not to use glue. A can of hair spray will be much better because it works with ABS and PLA and when the bed cools down the object will basically unstick itself from the bed. I haven&#039;t tried other methods (painter&#039;s tape, abs juice)</p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<p>Have yet to receive my printer, but have been doing a lot of reading and research. One topic that I see a lot of was problems removing model off bed. Saw a youtube video demonstrating the use of PC duster spray to cool bed. Seemed to work well. My question is this, is there a chance of the glass bed cracking due to rapid temperature change. What methods work good for you?</p><p>Thanks in advance.</p>]]></description>
